Fedora 18 : gallery3-3.0.8-1.fc18 (2013-10138)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 67270

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

A security flaw was found in the way uploadify and flowplayer SWF files handling functionality of Gallery version 3, an open source project with the goal to develop and support leading photo sharing web application solutions, processed certain URL fragments passed to these files (certain URL fragments were not stripped properly when these files were called via direct URL request(s)). A remote attacker could use this flaw to conduct replay attacks.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected gallery3 package.
